Respuesta :

Answer:

5 hourss

Step-by-step explanation:

197-32= 165

165/33

Answer:

5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Ralph earned $197 in total but with an initial fee of $32 so,

197 - 32 = 165

$165 is the amount he made from the hourly fee alone. So let's divide the total by the hourly fee.

165 ÷ 33 = 5.

So the job took 5 hours.
